2015 Keyboard Shortcuts

If anyone is interested, I've prepared a simple spreadsheet showing most of the current shortcuts in 2015 Platinum.
 
The reason I say 'most' is that several of the settings use identical shortcuts but context varies depending on focus. In this case I've simply ignored the settings for Step Sequencer, Screenset, Browser and Surround Panner.

    Great job.  Very useful!

    A few suggestions:
     
    - Give a key to the color coding.

    And a few minor spelling corrections:

    - "Automation anes" to "Automation Lanes" for A key.
    - "Shwo AudioSnap" to "Show AudioSnap" for A key.
    - "Togle" to "Toggle" for R key.
    - "Creat" to "Create" for V key.
    - "Autromation" to "Automation" for F12 key (in 2 places).
    - "Inserrt" to "Insert" for Num +.
    - "Paly/Stop" to "Play/Stop" for the Spacebar key.
    - "Grid reoslution" to "Grid resolution" (in bottom note)


     
    Thanks again, Tom

    The download is now corrected for spelling.
     
    I have also changed all the colours to black, on the assumption that you might want to use whatever colour scheme suits yourselves, and also, what colours I choose might not reflect on anyone else machine, depending on what Excel "Theme" is in use.

    I was referring to the color coding used in this old X1 shortcut chart:  http://blog.cakewalk.com/...-original-settings.pdf

    Where it had this key:

       AudioSnap Commands - light blue
       View Control Commands - Red
       Zoom Commands - blue
       Select/Search Commands - light green

    I don't know if it's worth continuing that color coding convention in your version.


    - Tom

    I think I found a few more issues, regarding Screensets and Nudge:


    Key   Key Alone             CTRL+Key

    1     Screenset 1          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 1
    2     Screenset 2          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 2
    3     Screenset 3          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 3
    4     Screenset 4          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 4
    5     Screenset 5          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 5
    6     Screenset 6          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 6
    7     Screenset 7          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 7
    8     Screenset 8          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 8
    9     Screenset 9          Copy current Screenset to Screenset 9
    0     Screenset 10        Copy current Screenset to Screenset 10


    Key     Key Alone

    Num1   Nudge Left 1
    Num2   Nudge Down
    Num3   Nudge Right 1
    Num4   Nudge Left 2
    Num5   Nudge Settings
    Num6   Nudge Right 2
    Num7   Nudge Left 3
    Num8   Nudge Up
    Num9   Nudge Right 3

    dang...what program opens ths XLSX file?  All I could find was a pay ap in my silly Win8.1 online store.
     
    Be nice to be a .jpeg or .bmp and I could alter it to fit my desktop like the other thread.
     
    EDIT...got it converted, but to fit my 27" monitor it was really too blurry.  Not good at this "office" stuff ;-)

    Jonesy, here are some additional comments/corrections ... based on my reading of
    https://www.cakewalk.com/...p;help=Menus1.181.html

    - ALT+C               Show/hide the Controller pane     [In PRV]

    - CTRL+ALT+H          Show and fit selection            [missing from your chart]

    - SHIFT+INSERT        Paste                             [same CTRL+V]
     
    - CTRL+INSERT         Copy                              [same CTRL+C]

    - CTRL+F3                                               [Correct spelling: Playback]

    - CTRL+SHIFT+PgUp     Go to previous marker             [These two were reversed]
    - CTRL+SHIFT+PgDN     Go to next marker

    - CTRL+UP ARROW       Zoom all tracks out vertically    [NOT in horizontally]

    - ALT+DOWN ARROW      Zoom out on all audio waveforms   [Add: & MIDI notes]
                          & MIDI notes

    - CTRL+ALT+DOWN ARROW Scale audio waveform in current     [See my note below]
                          audio track or scale MIDI notes
                          in current MIDI track

    - CTRL+ALT+UP ARROW   Scale audio waveform in current   [See my note below}
                          audio track or scale MIDI notes
                          in current MIDI track

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Note the HELP file has somewhat different entries for:

    CTRL+ALT+UP ARROW
    CTRL+ALT+DOWN ARROW
    vs
    CTRL+ALT+UP/DOWN ARROW    [This includes MIDI, while the 2 above don't]

    Get Libre Office it has a spreadsheet  program that will open Excel documents XLS  and XLSX.
     http://www.libreoffice.or...oad/libreoffice-fresh/ Its free.
